hold on to that dragon

"where is he?"

He Mengdie looked at the black box in Jiang Rang's hand: "After the Witch King left the box, he took him away."

She didn't blame anyone, but everyone present still had different expressions.

Jiang Rang calculated that the Witch King later took Buzhou to Hezhou, where Buzhou saw Xue Meicheng, and only then did he know that he was Yu Xuanzhu.

"Where is the Witch King now?" Has he returned to the spirit world, or is he still in the human world?

"……"no one knows.

Jiang Rang looked out of the camp through the walls, and the red dog who had led him before was squatting outside the wall and looking in the direction of the camp. "Bring in that red dog outside."

"..." Director Zhang asked people to go outside to see if there were any red dogs.

Soon, a large red dog the size of a pony ran into the room. It looked like a wolf, with strange dark red fur and red eyes. Spacious event space.

The big dog ran up to Jiang Rang without looking sideways, and looked up at him.

Director Zhang took two steps closer: "This is the red cloud that Mr. Ying mentioned, right? Mr. Ying said before he left that he had such a dog at home."

The big dog looked at Director Zhang, and gave two "woo hoo" in a low voice.

Jiang Rang looked down at the red dog. This sky dog ​​belongs to King Feng?Even if you don't have spiritual wisdom, you should be smarter.

"Do you know where Fengwangbei is?"

Hongyun used its claws to plan the ground. Its claws were very sharp. After a few claws, the light board on the ground was broken into foam like biscuits.

Jiang Rang floated up a little, letting his feet off the uneven ground.

Director Zhang: "..."

Jiang Rang looked around: "What do you mean here?"

Everyone hurriedly said: "It's not here anymore, it was taken away by the Witch King."

"Aww—" Hong Yun sobbed.

"You know the Witch King? Where is she?"

Hong Yun roared in the direction of Hezhou.

"Into the city?"

"Aww." Hong Yun nodded and shook his head.

"In and out again?"

"Ow!"

"Then where did she go?"

"Aww..." Hong Yun sobbed dejectedly.

Jiang Rang looked at the satellite image on the screen: "These eight witch formations only appeared after the witch king left?"

"Yes."

"What's the order of appearance?" Jiang Rang thought that these witch arrays were the fruits of Wu Yang's labor, so he wanted to use the order in which the witch arrays appeared to judge Wu Yang's whereabouts.

"It was Hezhou at first, and then those in the north. These two appeared at about the same time..."

The order in which these witch formations appeared was irregular, from south to north, from east to west, as if several groups—at least two groups—were working at the same time.

Jiang Rang's thoughts were interrupted, and these witch arrays were not made by the witch king?Or, besides her, is there anyone else who has the ability to set up this kind of witch formation?

He Mengdie suddenly said: "The place where these formations appear is the city where the Yeyan Alliance family is located."

The Banquet Alliance was originally composed of eleven families. The Wei family dispersed, the Zhu family retired after losing their hometown, and the Lan family was flooded, so there were only eight families left, which happened to be eight formations.

Director Zhang sighed: "Underworld Lord, the Banquet Alliance and the spirit world are inextricably linked. Does this mean that the spirit world has long conspired against the human world?"

Jiang Rang disagreed: "If there is a conspiracy, why wait until now?"

To him, the human world is just a novelty, interesting but useless.This is true for most people in the spirit world, except for the guy who came up with the "breathtaking" witch formation.

"Is it related to the population of the human world?"

Everyone looked at He Mengdie who was talking.

"The more people there are, the more people are popular." He Mengdie explained her thoughts, "Now the human world has a population of more than 70 billion; 100 years ago, it was only about 20 billion; 200 years ago, it was only about 10 billion; before that, there were even fewer people. .”

People in the spirit world have a long lifespan, and it is not a problem to wait for hundreds or thousands of years.

Everyone's faces were very ugly.If He Mengdie is right, then isn't the spirit world raising the human world as pigs, fattening it up for slaughter.

Jiang Rang looked at He Mengdie, this human girl is very smart.

"You mean that someone started planning a long time ago in order to absorb the popularity of the human world? This doesn't make sense. The spiritual world is full of spiritual energy and there is no need to fight for it. Why would this person abandon the spiritual energy and come to the human world to absorb popularity?"

He Mengdie reacted quickly: "Perhaps spiritual energy is useless to him, but popularity is useful?"

Everyone's faces turned black. If popularity is useful to people in the spirit world, wouldn't human beings be very dangerous in the future?

"I've never heard of such a thing." Jiang Rang looked at the dynamic map on the screen on the wall, "Probably only the person who set up this witch array knows what's going on."

"Can you break the formation?" Director Zhang asked immediately.

Jiang Rang looked in the direction of Hezhou - in the eyes of others, he was staring at the wall.

This serial witch formation is very powerful, at least three times stronger than Xishan's witch formation, but Jiang Rang is also much stronger than Xishan's back then, not only stronger, but also stronger in breaking the formation—— The witchcraft cheats given to him by the old ghost in the Nether Book Pavilion contained the basics of various witchcraft, and he basically learned them all.

Although the Wuzhen has a complex structure and a variety of styles, the basic principles are similar.

Compared with other people who understand formations, Jiang Rang's advantage is that where "intelligence" is not enough, he can use "strength" to make up for it-sometimes ingenuity is vulnerable to violence, just like people who cannot solve the Rubik's Cube can use Violence dismantled and reassembled the Rubik's Cube.

However, Hezhou is a city in the human world, and there are millions of people in it. Human beings are fragile, and they will die if there is a little violence.

"Breaking the formation will cause great damage. You humans are too weak to bear it."

"You mean that if you want to break Hezhou's formation, you will destroy the entire Hezhou?"

"Yes, if I break the formation, I will destroy this city, maybe not only this city."

Director Zhang smiled apologetically: "... Is there any way to break the formation without causing so much damage?"

"Maybe, the Witch King is very good at breaking formations, why didn't you ask her before?" Jiang Rang cared more about the Witch King than the Xiemen's Qi-absorbing formation - he thought that Bu Zhou was still in the hands of the Witch King.

"..."

In the "deal" with the Witch King, human beings are very weak and passive, and it can be said that they are only forced to accept the result.

At first, they had illusions about the Witch King, thinking that when the rain stopped, the Witch Array would stop as well.As a result, they thought too much, and the witch array didn't stop at all.

They didn't know that the floods had just changed forms too—turned into droughts.Although it is not obvious now, the water vapor on the ground continues to decrease. If this continues, it will turn into a drought sooner or later.

"Is it possible that the Witch King is the culprit for attracting popularity?" Director Zhang asked.

"It's not Yu... isn't it Xue Meicheng?" What Buzhou told Jiang Rang was that Yu Xuanzhu wanted to "become king by attracting people".

"Xue Meicheng?!" Everyone was shocked, "He is a human being, why would he attract people? This is impossible!"

"He is not a human being. His real name is Yu Xuanzhu, and he is the son of the South Sea Shark King in the spirit world."

"..."

Everyone was very angry, all of them blushed and their necks were thick: "He has been lurking in the human world for so long!"

"He might just be the beneficiary." Jiang Rang felt that Yu Xuanzhu didn't create those witch formations, and that witch formations were the specialty of the witch clan. "When was the last time there was a large-scale construction project in Hezhou?" The whole city must be constructed to arrange such a large shaman formation.

"Master Ming, what scale of project are you talking about? Hezhou is an ancient city, and there are many ruins underground, so it is generally not digging deep when construction starts."

If the digging is deep and something is dug out, if it is not corrected, the work must be completely shut down. This is a money-losing business.

"How deep is 'No Deep Digging'?" Jiang Rang didn't know the depth of the human world.

"Dig three or four meters down, and you will find porcelain pieces from the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The Sui and Tang Dynasties are more than 1000 years old."

Jiang Rang looked at the height from the ground to the roof of the room: "How deep is this?"

"...less than three meters high."

"Has there been a deeper, larger-scale construction than this?"

"Archaeology? Usually it is to dig a fixed area." Director Zhang asked someone to bring a map of Hezhou, and pointed out the locations of several museums to Jiang Rang.

"The area is not enough. When was the last time the city was built?" To set up the witch formation, it is definitely not enough to just dig a few points, and it has to be fully excavated.

"The city of Hezhou was built layer by layer without digging deep."

"Oh?"

The insect city in Pingfeng Mountain is also stacked layer by layer, but it will be dug down very deep, and it will go all the way to the magma and ground fire deep in the ground.

"...Let's put it this way, in Hezhou today, if you dig ten meters down, you can dig things from the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties."

Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties are the early history of mankind.Going forward, the human world and the spiritual world are one.

"Oh."

The shaman formation in Hezhou was more than ten meters deep, which means that the shaman formation should have been set up a long time ago—before Yu Xuanzhu was born, and before Wu Yang was born.

So, who did it?What is the purpose?

"I want to enter Hezhou." Jiang Rang decided to meet Yu Xuanzhu to see what was going on with him, and also asked him if he knew the whereabouts of Wu Wang and Bu Zhou.

"Then... breaking the formation...?"

"Can you move the people out of the city?" Jiang Rang didn't intend to "kill".

"..." It's hard, and it takes time.

He Mengdie looked at Jiang Rang hesitantly: "After you enter Hezhou, if you fight with someone...?" That would also cause serious damage.

"I didn't come to the human world to fight."

Director Zhang wiped his sweat. If Jiang Rang left, what would they do? "Please wait a moment, we want to discuss the matter of Hezhou... is that okay?" He was going to report the latest situation here to the leaders.

"Hurry up."

"Okay, okay." Director Zhang left in a hurry.

The room became quiet, and Jiang Rang remembered what King Feng said about Fengwangbei's spiritual power being sealed, so he asked, "Who is that person who helped King Wu seal Fengwangbei's spiritual power? Where is she?"

"..." He Mengdie spoke incoherently, "No, no, I didn't help her, I didn't know she cast a curse on me."

Hong Yun looked at He Mengdie, her red eyes fixed on her.

He Mengdie retreated again and again.

Jiang Rang teleported to He Mengdie's side, and put his hand on top of He Mengdie's head. He Mengdie shrank his neck in horror, but couldn't avoid Jiang Rang's hand.

"You, what do you want to do?"

"Nothing." Jiang Rang withdrew his hand.

He wanted to see if there were any abnormalities in He Mengdie's body.He remembered that Buzhou said that He Mengdie was just an ordinary human being, but Buzhou also said that Xue Meicheng was a human being. His eyes could see the truth, but sometimes he couldn't see the complete truth.

"You seem to be very familiar with Li Rong?"

"...Generally, Mr. Li Rong is very friendly."

"You and Wu Xiao seem to know each other very well."

"...No, Mr. Wu is a friend of Mr. Li Rong."

"It is said that you like Fengwangbei?"

"..." He Mengdie quickly shook his head.

"Don't like it anymore? Why?"

"..."

"You think he's changed too?"

"...It's not that he has changed, it's that people have many facets. I didn't know him before." He Mengdie lowered his head silently, and saw the broken arm hanging in front of him, which was broken by Feng Wangbei.Some people can only see from a distance.

Jiang Rang didn't say anything anymore. He looked around and saw that Director Zhang was standing in a room with iron walls, wearing a mask on his face, silently, not knowing what he was doing.

Director Zhang holds meetings with people online.

Everyone discussed very intensely.

"...Hearing you say that, the ghost king is a good man? Will he help us?"

"Looking at what he means, he is willing to help and has the ability, but he is just worried about causing damage."

"So for our sake?" Everyone was dubious.

"He is more reliable than the Witch King. He is close to Feng Wang Bei, and we are divided into groups. Looking at Feng Wang Bei, he knows that the ghost king's character is not too bad."

"Then quickly evacuate people from the city. People in Hezhou, Jiangzhou and other cities should all evacuate as many people as possible."

"There is a question, what will happen if he knows that we acquiesced to the Witch King to take away Fengwangbei?"

"...We can't really blame us for this. If we don't acquiesce, the Witch King will take him."

"Would it be useful to sincerely ask for his forgiveness?"

"No, absolutely not! If he walks away in anger, who else can we wait to save mankind?"

"But deceiving him now may also cause serious consequences-he can save us or destroy us. He is now the king of the three clans, the most powerful person in the spirit world, no, he should be the most powerful person in this world .”

"..."

A quarter of an hour later, Director Zhang returned to Jiang Rang's room.

"Underworld Lord, there is something I want to apologize to you. We watched Feng Wangbei being taken away by the Witch King. We were too selfish." He bowed his head deeply.

Jiang Rang didn't understand what he meant, and looked at He Mengdie: "Explain."

"The Witch King said we let her take Fengwangbei away, and she will stop the rain for us."

Jiang Rang didn't get angry, but commented: "Weak and stupid."

"You are right." Director Zhang stepped forward, "I have the audacity to ask you to help us resolve this crisis, and we will fully cooperate with you—we are willing to do anything."

Jiang Rang was silent.In his opinion, human beings are too weak, and their cooperation is useless.

"Underworld Lord..." Director Zhang thought that Jiang Rang was unwilling to help, and suddenly felt sad and burst into tears.

His appearance reminded Jiang Rang of the Xishan Shark Clan. "Okay, we'll get through this. I'll go into the city to see what's going on."

Jiang Rang disappeared from where he was.

"Aw!" Hong Yun rushed out of the room.

The teary-eyed Director Zhang: "..."

He Mengdie said: "I think he means that he agreed to help us."

"……yes?"

A cloud and rain covered Hezhou, and light rain fell from the sky.

People were worried: "It's raining again, don't let it rain heavily."

In the lotus garden, Yu Xuanzhu closed her eyes, sitting on the side of the bed, absorbing the popularity attentively.

A gust of wind and a few strands of drizzle blew into the room through the half-opened window. A drop of rain fell on the glass bottle on the table. The little furball sitting in the bottle and dozing with its head tilted opened its eyes. Flying towards it through the glass bottle, it tilted its head, the raindrops fell on its eyes, and rolled down, barely hanging on the tip of the eyelashes, like teardrops.
